Good day/evening everyone! I am not yet done with my notifications. Sorry if I am late with replying to your comments but I will be done with it as soon as possible. I will be interacting with you when I have time. Usually after dinner. Yesterday, I was walking with my friends at the lake again. It was so wonderful as the day was sunny. There were even divers and some were boating at the lake. Many were doing their walking, too. My friends and I were just walking and sitting sometimes at the lake observing the people and the nature around. We have seen a lot of birds, dragonflies and butterflies at the lake as well. It was fun. I have taken videos and photos of the dragonflies and butterflies. The birds were fast as they were gone before I was able to take a photo of them. Please zoom the photo for you to see the dragonflies. This afternoon, I have to go to the Asian shop as I need some Asian food and ingredients. So, I will be busy again. What are your plans for today? Thank you and have a nice Friday everyone. Take care always.

At least you can still stroll there. In beaches near home swimmers are banned to swim.

Yes, we can @cacay1. We are responsible for ourselves though police are still there to control those who are not following the regulations.

@thelme55 it was nice. Pretty easy trail to walk and the geocaches I was looking for weren’t far off the trail so that made them much easier to find.

It took a bit of looking, but I found the dragonflies. I'm glad you had a good walk by the lake. It was laundry and haircut today.

beautiful. i think that one with slim body is a damsel fry. when we were still younger, my mother (+) would make a plane from a piece of paper, attach it on the insect's body, and let it fly.

I really thought that they are dragonflies @ridingbet and @myklj999. I am glad that I am corrected here. Now I know the difference between the 2.

We see a lot of dragonflies around here. For some reason they seem to like the antennas of the cars.

Photo from Google Image Search
Those are the tiny, needle looking ones. I'm more familiar with the bigger ones, the one with big sort of googly eyes. I see those kinds more often and they come in different colors too. I even catch them sometimes and set them free after.

Dragon flies I have seen only in my childhood. Now I don't see them at all. I don't know where they have gone
